Tuttle School Rules!

The Tuttle School at Briarwood is for students, ages 5-21, with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities. It is designed to teach functional age-appropriate skills within a school or community setting. Our school strives to teach students to lead successful and personally fulfilling lives at their individual ability level. Because of the unique needs of the Tuttle School population, extra emphasis is placed on the teaching and application of functional and pragmatic skills. To ensure maximum learning, each class is staffed with a teacher and an assistant with 8-10 students per class.
